To all/whom z't'may cof/teem'.l

Be it known that I, LOUIS P. PU'rr, a citiimprovements in length and properly securedtogether and about which hairv may '-be wrapped and secured. With .a curler of this type 1t often occurs that thehair becomes Adisengaged from the -curler and causes considerable incon venience. i

With the above in mind it isthe object of the -present invention'to provide a hair curler of this character wherebyvthe disadvantage heretofore referred to `may be avoided. v f

It is also within the scopes and' objects of .the invention that the curler be extremely simple in construction,easy to manipulate and not injurious to the hair.

Other objects and objects relating to edetails of construction will hereinafter appear.-

The invention is illustrated by way of example in the accompanying drawing, in which Figure 1 is a perspective viewvillustrating the application of the invention,

Referring to the drawings more-particu larlythe device may consist. in two exible strands W which are of the same length and each, strand W.mayV consists in-V a wire 10 In fact the strands W may each be of a section of insulated copper Vwiresuch as used for relec- In forming the curler, the strandsW are placed together and the end portions thereof wrapped about -each other to provide the twotwisted portions 12 and intermediatethese portions are the portions 13 which are fother, a Wrapping a free fromeach other. The twisted portions 12 may now be wrapped with thread or the like as indicated'at 14 (Figure 2) and the ends of the wires may be covered with sealing wax or the like as at 15.- Also the portions 13 of the strands may be slightly twistedabout each other as shown in Figure 2. The curler is now ready for the market and a number'of these curlers may be placed in one receptacle'for shipment or storage.

lVhere it is desired to use one--of the curlrs the middle portions 13 of the strands W are disengaged fromv each other and .arranged strands of hair may be exten edthrough this .loop as shown in Figure 1 and then the end portions 12 of the strands may be portions-13 are again twisted and thereby to bind the strands of hair therebetween.v Preferably the binding at this time isslight sothat the' curler may be slippedv upon the strands;` of hair to the desired position.

and upon the hair andthus effecting a means for holding the curler in! this ,What I claim is:

1. A hair curler comprising a pair of elongated flexible elements having similar en d portions twisted about each other andv position.

their central portions free from each other andcurved to form a pair of opposed arcs to provide a loop through which a lock of hairr'nay be extendedand whereby with ,the twistingfof the elements, the loop may be closed and a lock of saidelements.

2. A hair curler comprising a pair A flexible wires covered with fabric and hav-1A ing similar' end lportions twisted together" and their central j LOUIS PHILIP PUTE.
